The production of Cordon Rouge G.H. Mumm champagne
Cordon Rouge is made from an exceptional blend of more than 77 crus, representing the diversity of the Champagne terroirs. The composition includes 45% Pinot Noir, which brings structure and power, 30% Chardonnay for its finesse and elegance, and 25% Pinot Meunier, offering fruity and round notes. Reserve wines, added at a rate of 25 to 30%, bring complexity and depth. After several years of aging in the cellar, the cuvée is dosed at 8 g/L, preserving the characteristic freshness of the G.H. Mumm style.
The vintage and blend
The Cordon Rouge cuvée is not vintage; it is a blend of several years' harvests. This allows G.H. Mumm to guarantee consistency of style year after year. The use of reserve wines, some of which are aged for up to four years, contributes to the cuvée's complexity and balance, reflecting the essence of the great Champagne terroirs.
